NewsFlash! Trump Signs Executive Orders Related to Border Wall and ‘Sanctuary Cities’

Earlier today, President Trump signed two immigration-related executive orders. The first calls for construction to begin on a border wall between the United States and Mexico. The second order serves to withhold federal funding from so-called “sanctuary cities” – that is, U.S. municipalities that do not fully cooperate with immigration officials with regard to undocumented foreign nationals. President Trump is also reportedly considering signing an executive order that would temporarily stop the flow of nearly all refugees into the United States, and also temporarily prevent foreign nationals from certain countries from being admitted into the U.S.
